TP-Link TL-SG108PE network switch 8 × 1G, 4 × PoE, Easy Smart

The TP-Link TL-SG108PE is an eight-port gigabit Easy Smart network switch, four of whose ports deliver PoE power to IP cameras, IP phones and Wi-Fi access points. The web interface adds VLANs, QoS and traffic monitoring, and the metal housing sits on a desk or mounts on a wall.

  • Ports: 8 × RJ-45 10/100/1000 Mbps
  • PoE: 4 PoE-powered ports, intelligent priority-based power management
  • Management: Easy Smart L2, web interface and Easy Smart Configuration Utility, 32 port-based VLANs, QoS, IGMP snooping, port mirroring, loop prevention
  • Performance: 16 Gbps switching capacity, 4000-entry MAC table
  • Housing: metal, 158 × 101 × 25 mm, desktop or wall mount, fanless
  • Power: external 48 V adapter included

Description

PoE that saves you separate power cables

The four PoE ports carry both data and power over a single network cable, so a camera or access point does not have to sit near a power outlet. When the combined draw nears the limit, intelligent power management switches off the lower-priority port and keeps the more important devices running. The other four ports are regular gigabit data ports for a computer, NAS or router.

Who this network switch is for

Homes and small offices where a couple of IP cameras, IP phones or Omada access points need power; users who want simple VLANs and QoS without enterprise-level complexity; and installers who need a quiet fanless switch for a desk or wall.

Questions & answers

Is this a managed switch?

Yes, it is an Easy Smart switch. The web interface or the TP-Link utility lets you set up to 32 VLANs, traffic priority, IGMP snooping and port mirroring, and monitor network traffic.

How many cameras can it power?

PoE is available on four ports, so up to four devices can be powered at once. The manufacturer data gives different values for the total PoE budget, so check your cameras' consumption against the manufacturer's user guide first.

Can it be mounted on a wall?

Yes, the metal housing is designed for both desktop and wall mounting. It measures 158 × 101 × 25 mm and, having no fan, runs silently.
